Interview with Yohji Yamamoto's Communications Director: Coralie Gauthier
Emily Dickson:
That was a beautiful show. I wanted to ask you why did you decide to use couples who were actual real normal people as oppose to supermodels?
Coralie Gauthier:
There were a few aspects that we wanted to explore for this show. Firstly, Yohji always enjoys to have the catwalk with 'real people', different shapes, heights, attitudes, cultures - we felt that it would be very interesting for London, as it is really a city of individuality. On the other side, as a V&A exhibition this is really the first time that we have shown menswear and womenswear together as an exhibition, so we thought that it would be nice to show menswear and womenswear together on the catwalk
And were they all British models?
Strangely, there are a lot of French, but they are all based in London.
And what do you think that does, how does that change the dynamic of a fashion show - to have real people who are in a relationship wearing the clothes.
I would say it gives much more room for accident. Yohji really hates perfection, so for him it is good to have real people joking and playing with clothes with a certain sense of humour.
I noticed that they were sort of reassuring each other, and looking kind of awkward, one of them would kind of stroke their arm - that is a side of the catwalk situation that you don't normally see because models are normally incredibly over-confident.
Absolutely, it's something that we asked for. We said, 'just be very natural as you would be in the street, or in the forest, just having a lovely time and looking all around, and enjoy it', so it was one of the briefs at the beginning.
It worked very very well. I wanted to ask you about whether it was important to you that these couples were actually in love?
It was for sure one of the things, because you can't fake it and when you have the couple like this, you really get the kind of electricity of love, you can't fake it.
And can you talk me through the influences in terms of the styles of clothing that he is referencing because I notice there are a lot of British references with things like Tophats and collared shirts . And there also seem to be a lot of references to things like Punk and Victoriana.
Absolutely, what you just saw was Spring/Summer 2011 collection. That was a very particular moment for Yohji because it was the end of two years and a half of working on the exhibition here and in fact one of the curator and project managers came on one of the trips and brought a book from the V&A textile collection and Yohji literally fell in love with all the different textiles. He decided to take it as an inspiration, so that was the story for the menswear. For the womenswear, it was more of a variation of Punk, Black and Classic mixed with an ode to peace and religion, so it was kind of funky, and soft in a message of peace because in a way it was like Buddhism, Jewish symbols, Catholic and things like that.
It sort of draws attention to the fact that clothes and identity are very closely connected and I think that the use of these couples is related to that.
Yeah that is true, it is much more interactive and again for Yohji Yamamoto for him it is very important for him that the person who is wearing his clothes has their own personality and their own attitude and I think that he doesn't want to impose a style, he just wants your personality to add something to his clothes and his proposal, but it's up to you to make it happen.
It's interesting because the men's suits are sort of unstructured, but there is also something quite structured about them, I don't know if that is similar to what you are talking about. The body or the person becomes the structure of the clothes?
I think you know that Yohji starts with the fabric - that is the starting point for everything, for him. This is something that is very important for him and there is a good balance because he leaves a lot of space and air, so you can feel comfortable in the clothes.
And is Buddhism and the Japanese way of life significant in relation to the design?
No I wouldn't say that, it was just a message, but not really connected. It was just one of the themes of this season.
Finally I just wanted to ask about the context of the room with the Raphael's and the crucifix peeping over the top - how significant was that in relation to the show?
It was something like a kind of dream because initially I have to say when we started to work on the V&A exhibition, as you know there is the main gallery space where we have all different kind of clothes that we spread all around the museum. The Raphael rooms was one of the first on the list so we are very happy to be there because it's like the last idyllic space of the exhibition.
Coralie Gauthier discusses 'V&A Fashion in Motion: Yohji Yamamoto' with Emily Dixon, providing an exclusive insight into the inspiration and reference points behind the show, and the significance of using real couples as models.

YORK, Pa.—An appeals court says statements a Pennsylvania man made after allegedly firing more than two dozen shots at the neighbor's home can be used at his trial.
The state Superior Court last week found William Marx Jr. was no longer intoxicated when he awoke at a hospital and allegedly expressed regret that his neighbor was unharmed in the June 2011 incident in Jackson Township, York County.
The York Dispatch ( http://bit.ly/11k7ain) reports police say Marx was read his rights earlier then asked if he remembered them when he woke up. A county judge had found that wasn't sufficient.
Marx's attorney says his client has mental health problems and didn't mean to hurt anyone.
Investigators say Marx fired more than 30 large-caliber rounds into the adjoining home during a five-hour standoff.

These are really beautiful. I love the lime kitchen- it's a great color.
Here is another use of green in the kitchen and dining area that i really like:
and also here from the same apartment:
and the matching dining set- open to that beautiful kitchen:
I'd like to show another beautiful red kitchen:
Green is such a great color for a kitchen. Love these.
oh egads! i found most of these to be absolutely revolting! with the exception of the lovely 14, which i've previously saved and fallen in love with her style! and the storage in 15 was clever and attractive as well.
aside from those 2, the rest made me shudder.
great job.
I just this week painted my kitchen green. It makes such a contrast to the light cabinets and flooring. Can't wait to finish up the trim so I can put it all back together!

What is the make and model of your faucet. Is it kitchen, lav, tub and shower , etc.......
What am I doing wrong? I even put the old cartridge in, and now I have the same problem with that too. Please help!!
What is the make and model of your faucet. Is it kitchen, lav, tub and shower , etc.......
It is a Price-Pfister shower with an Avante cartridge (S74-292).
The old cartridge came out with no problem, I put in the new one and attached the handle and now I get hardly any flow out of my shower. I tried to put the old cartridge back in and have the same problem.
Am I putting the cartridge in wrong? There are really only 2 ways to put it in that I can see and I've tried both with no success. Am I an idiot or what?
Have you tried pulling off the shower head to make sure nothing is blocking the shower head holes? Sometimes some debris comes loose and pushed up to the head.
Yes. I've taken off the head and the hose and the flow is very low coming out of the pipe. I have no idea what's wrong.
I am an idiot. I forgot to check the filter on my ball joint.
Problem solved.

HBM solutions for the marine and shipbuilding industry
Shipping has been the basis of global trade for thousands of years. The call for greater efficiency, increasingly stringent emissions directives, and new ship propulsion systems bring new challenges for the shipbuilding industry worldwide.
HBM provides you with the right solution to keep your development and production of ships, marine engines and other components fit for the future. For example, in the following applications:
Testing of ship combustion engines
Testing of ship engines
This is a standard application in engine testing, however it is often still performed by means of lever arms and force transducers – thus not meeting new requirements for measurement uncertainty budgets.
Standard HBM T10FH or T40FM torque transducers are perfect for the implementation into systems for testing of ship engines. With this well accepted technology, measurement uncertainty budgets of less than 1% for the complete test systems can be met.
See also our white paper on torque measurement of ship engines
Torque transducers from HBM for ship engine testing:
T10FH analog high capacity torque flange
Monitoring of gas engines with direct drive mechanism
Monitoring of gas engines in direct drive propulsions
The latest international regulations, such as MARPOL annex VI, requires significant emission reductions.
An option for this is to increase the use of gas engines, instead of classic diesel engines. Gas engines burn very cleanly therefore exhaust gas cleaning is not necessary, however to do this they need to be carefully controlled by a high precision load signal.
Torque transducers directly installed on-board of ships with gas engines (or dual fuel engines), with direct drive propulsions, can automatically optimise the gas engine performance – this also guarantees the protection of the gas engine from knocking, misfiring and overload. Furthermore, this torque flange technology has been identified and is now promoted by international marine societies.
A customized version of HBM's T10FH high capacity torque transducer is now available with ATEX certification.
T10FH torque transducer with ATEX certificate for monitoring of gas engines
Upgrading of high-capacity hydraulic dynamometers
Upgrading of high-capacity hydraulic dynamometers
High capacity dynamometers are integral part of test systems for marine engines. They are often still equipped with lever arms and force transducers; however this installation limits the measurement uncertainty.
A state of the art solution is offered by HBM: installation of a torque flange directly to the output shaft of the dynamometer is by far the more precise method of doing this.
Hull testing
Be it on board, in the test bench or on a model: HBM test and measurement equipment allows optimized stress testing and monitoring of ship hulls. Use the complete measuring chain from a single source: Strain gauges, transducers, data acquisition systems and professional measurement software.
Read how Qinetiq monitored the hull of its latest air-cushion-supported catamaran
Data acquisition in simulations and tests in the shipbuilding industry
Ships are sometimes subjected to enormous mechanical stress. Therefore, studies and experiments on ship models are carried through in special test facilities to allow better understanding of physical phenomena and to optimize ship designs.
Powerful measurement data acquisition is a must. Leading research institutes, for example MARINTEK in Norway place their trust in HBM data acquisition systems
Structural analysis with high channel counts
Do you want to subject large structures, for example ships to structural analysis and stress tests? The MGCplus data acquisition system combined with catman®Enterprise software is the optimal solution for measurement tasks involving high channel counts.
Virtual fatigue tests using nCode software
HBM nCode software solutions help you understand the key influencing factors that affect product durability. HBM nCode fatigue and durability test software enables you, for example, to:
- Perform powerful analysis quickly and efficiently
- Dramatically save analysis time - often from days to minutes
- Avoid over design and associate cost and weight
- Automate complex analysis and processes
- Share and analyze service load data easily.
Weighing of ships, ship's bridges and other components
When correct weight is what counts: HBM load cells are integrated in different types of scales to ensure precise results. They are also available as weighing modules, for example for silo weighing.

All three were injured in a 31-7 loss to Carolina on Sunday that eliminated the Bolts from playoff contention.
Mathews broke his left collarbone, Floyd sustained an ankle injury and Wells had ankle and toe injuries.
Mathews, who broke his right collarbone on his first carry of the exhibition season, played in 12 regular-season games. He was the team's leading rusher with 707 yards and a touchdown on 184 carries.
Floyd led the Chargers with 56 catches for 814 yards and five touchdowns. Wells spent time on the Chargers' roster early in the season and then returned on Dec. 5. He started the past two games at right tackle.
The Chargers filled two of the vacancies on the active roster Tuesday by signing wide receiver Mike Willie and defensive end Damik Scafe from the practice squad.

Health insurers don't exactly enjoy a reputation for timely payouts when people submit claims. They've been known to make policyholders jump through all sorts of hoops before coming across with a little cash.
But when you owe them money, that's another story.
Karen Fairbank, 60, of Pacific Palisades discovered this recently when Blue Shield of California sent her a letter demanding that she return a payment of more than $2,400, and that she do it pronto.
Plus $4.70 in interest.
Or else.
"I didn't know whether I actually owed them money or not," Fairbank told me. "But the fact that they wanted interest on a payment they said they made by mistake — that's just astounding."
Equally astounding was Blue Shield's insistence that she pay up within 30 days or face the company's debt collectors and potentially have her credit score trashed.
What, did these guys take customer-service lessons from Tony Soprano?
"We have determined that an incorrect payment in the amount of $2,454.56 has been made," Blue Shield said in its letter to Fairbank. It said the money should have gone to Ronald Reagan UCLA Medical Center for cataract surgery she underwent in March and April last year.
"The payment was issued to you in error," Blue Shield said. It said it expected the full amount, including interest, returned within 30 working days.
"If payment is not received," the insurer noted, "the amount may be assigned for recovery."
OK, mistakes happen. Even an insurance giant like Blue Shield can mess things up and make an incorrect payment.
What's striking here, though, is the no-pussyfooting-around tone that the company adopted, in stark contrast to the runaround Fairbank said she received when she had her operations.
Blue Shield and UCLA were bickering at the time over reimbursement rates, and the insurer had announced that it wouldn't cover any treatment at the school's medical facilities, throwing thousands of patients into limbo.
At one point, Fairbank faced paying more than $12,000 in out-of-pocket costs because she couldn't get her insurer and the hospital to kiss and make up. She eventually got both sides to agree to a "continuity of care" agreement under which Blue Shield said it would keep covering her treatment.
During that episode, however, Fairbank said it was all but impossible to stay on top of who was owed what. UCLA, for example, kept sending her sky-high bills, prompting her to overpay the hospital. She received a $920 refund from UCLA in February.
She received the $2,454.56 check from Blue Shield in May. Fairbank assumed at the time that it was the insurer making good for her overpayments to the hospital.
After receiving Blue Shield's letter the other day, Fairbank contacted UCLA and was assured that no bills were outstanding. This confirmed that the insurer did indeed pay twice for part of the treatment — once to the hospital and once to Fairbank — and was due a refund.
But Blue Shield's letter was woefully short on details about how the mistake occurred or why it took almost a year to seek repayment.
Nor did it show the slightest flexibility in how the money should be paid back. You'd think they would at least be open to an installment plan, considering this was their screw-up.

Planned Parenthood Federation of America President Cecile Richards to Receive Honorary Degree from Brown University
NEW YORK, NY Planned Parenthood Federation of America (PPFA) today announced that Cecile Richards, president of PPFA and the Planned Parenthood Action Fund, will receive an honorary degree from Brown University for her dedication to civic leadership and public service, and her commitment to voting rights, education and advocacy. Richards is a 1980 graduate of Brown University.
This is truly an honor. To this day, I treasure my time as a student at Brown University where I was able to build upon my familys value of public service and commitment to social justice, said PPFA President Cecile Richards. I am humbled to be honored among such courageous leaders as Nelson Mandela, David Rohde and Romila Thapur, and with the preeminent Pulitzer Prize-winning historian of the American Revolution and my former professor, Gordon S. Wood.
Cecile Richards is a nationally recognized progressive leader. Before joining Planned Parenthood, she served as deputy chief of staff for Democratic Leader Nancy Pelosi, founded and served as the president of America Votes, and established the Texas Freedom Network.

Austria Travel Guide
A "blast from the past" is how one recent visitor described her journey through Austria. It remains, she explained, a place where children laugh at marionette shows in the parks, couples linger for hours over pastries at gilt-ceiling cafés, and Lipizzan stallions dance to Mozart minuets—in other words, Austria is a country that has not forgotten the elegance of a time gone by.

Chocolate tutorial
Mon, 02/9/04 8:12 PM
From Money Magazine, if anyone is interested.
It's dark, it's smooth, it has cachet -- and costing as much as $70 a pound, it better be good
February 9, 2004: 4:05 PM EST
By Leslie Land, Money magazine contributing writer
NEW YORK (Money magazine) - Unless you've been shopping on another planet, you know chocolate is no longer a simple matter of dark or milk, with or without interesting lumps.
Supermarkets sell Lindt and Perugina. Godiva, a pioneer in mass-market luxury now owned by Campbell Soup, has so many boutique outlets that it's starting to look like Starbucks. Premium chocolates, which used to be something you brought back from Europe, now account for about 10 percent of the $14 billion U.S. market.
But is there more to those deluxe assortments than pure snob appeal? Can it possibly be legit for the British Web site seventypercent.com to say that a chocolate bar (Michel Cluizel's Amer 72 percent Cocoa) has "strong but refined tobacco aroma with hints of damp woods and dark fruits?"
Well, yes. The subject is so complex that descriptions are bound to sound like win-espeak, making it easy to fear hype about what's haute.
Whether you're shopping for yourself or for a gift, when it comes to chocolate, of course, you'll want to do some tasting yourself. It's wise to start with the straight stuff -- plain dark-chocolate bars. Here's what to look for.
Cacao-bean basics
Like wine, chocolate is an agricultural product that goes through enhancing transformations, which can turn blah into acceptable. What no amount of processing can do is create greatness without great raw material.
Like wine grapes, most of the world's cacao beans are workhorse types, useful for providing bulk but unable to deliver more than a basic chocolate taste. Only a small percentage can express the enormous range of flavors that inspires poetic analogies.
Again, as with wine, it's a long way from field to table. To achieve greatness, these best beans must be correctly fermented, dried, roasted, blended, ground and sweetened before the final grinding that produces optimum texture.
And all this just gets you to the best plain chocolate. Add the butter and cream, the fruits, nuts, spices -- hot pepper! -- that turn chocolate into chocolates, and the whole subject may seem impossible to sort out.
Fortunately, it's quite easy to spot the subtleties that make good chocolate stand up and say, "Choose me, I'm better," as long as you start with the basics.
An informal sampling of four or five top chocolates is enough to start you on the road to connoisseurship. There's no need to do a blind tasting. What matters is that the chocolates be dairy-free, unflavored -- except with vanilla -- and at least two-thirds chocolate.
It's legal to call a product dark chocolate if it contains 41 percent cocoa, but as Pierrick Chouard, an importer of high-end products (echocolates.com) points out, "the higher the percentage of cocoa, the less opportunity there is to cover off-flavors or hide defects."
Products containing 65 percent to 70 percent cocoa or more are unquestionably the best, although above 85 percent, there's too little sugar for most tastes -- even very sophisticated ones.
Anything that densely chocolate will be pretty dark, but you will see slight differences in color that hint at different roasts. You should also notice a definite snap at first bite that confirms both high cocoa content and careful mixing.
According to Chouard, who started out as a tropical agronomist and still gives courses that include chocolate botany, the seeds (beans) of Theobroma cacao have over 1,000 flavor components.
Not all will be discernible, but as the chocolate melts slowly in your mouth, it should deliver a blend of several pleasing aromas. Be on the alert for flowers, fruits, spices, nuts, tobacco and toast. If you taste rubber, mold, straw, grass or strong acid or smoke, you know there were problems in processing, storage, manufacture or (worst case, but it happens) all three.
The ideal is a balanced, lingering flavor, with the inborn bitterness of chocolate offset by sweet fragrances and a bit, but only a bit, of natural acid and added sugar.
Blends versus single origin
Most connoisseurs are quick to point out that the finest chocolates are blends. Nevertheless, the hottest thing in chocolate right now is single-origin chocolate made entirely from beans grown in one country or even on one plantation. The differences between single-origins are striking, so they are ideal for taste tests.
Terroir, "the taste of the place," is probably less important for chocolate than it is for wine, but the emphasis it puts on first-class beans bodes well for the future. So does the fact that most premium bars cost $3 to $5. Even the most expensive won't run more than a ten spot; that's a hell of a lot more than Hershey's, but a mighty democratic price for the very best you can buy.

Nice fireplace for the money
By Dutchie
from Boston, MA
We bought the insert to turn a decorative wood fireplace in our smallish livingroom (12'x20')into something providing suplementary heat on cold days, without having to crank the heat up on the entire floor (it is an open concept space with connections to the foyer and diningroom and kitchen). The insert was very easy to set up and the quartz elements provide a decent amount of heat to keep our livingroom comfortable. The flames look nice, but if you look at them for more than 10 seconds you start seeing the repeating pattern, but personally it is not a big turn-off since I don't stare at it. Instead of buying a metal trimkit I build my own using some wood trim giving it a nice look (in te image I haven't slid the insert all the way back into place yet as I still needed to make a cutout on the bottom right for the powercord.)

Excellent secondary source for heating. I like the timer setting and child proof mechanism.
Great looks and performance
By JPand3
from Wakefield, NH
I have a beautiful, very old fireplace that cannot be used any longer due to rusted heaterlator pipes. My alternative was a gas or pellet insert. When looking online I saw this electric model for a very reasonable price. I needed to supplement heat for a very large open room of approx. 22' x 24'. This works beautiful and also looks very nice. You don't feel or even really hear a blower but it does do the job and gives the room great atmosphere.

Like many, I've been counting a lot of blessings lately. In this season of thanksgiving, I've reflected on the good things in my life and I keep coming back to one overall theme.
Life seems to be as it's supposed to be.
At this point in the path, there is peace. How lucky I must be to look over the years and see that one phase flowed right into the next, leading me to today. Phase by phase, maybe it seems trivial, but I'm thankful for each moment that led me this way and that way.

Figures from the Alabama Center for Real Estate show 233 homes were sold in the county during the first quarter of the year — the best yearly start the area has had since 301 homes were purchased during the first quarter of 2007. The first quarter sales, the best they have been since before the economic recession hit, show the area housing market is well on the mend due to increased consumer confidence and home loans and low interest rates, housing industry experts and economists say.
Joey Crews of Keller Williams Realty in Anniston said his company has had a great year so far, noting it had its best March sales since 2009.
"We've had consistent improvement over the past several years and marked improvement this year," Crews said. "They sky still has not fallen."
The housing industry across the country boomed between 2001 and 2007, however, that housing bubble burst in late 2007, which led to the economic crash and recession the following year. The recession resulted in mass layoffs and foreclosed homes, all of which depressed the housing market. The housing industry has been trying to recover ever since.
Crews said that for the last several years, many people were reluctant to buy homes because housing prices kept dropping.
"I think there was a lack of consumer confidence," Crews said. "But now people are realizing the pricing bottom has hit and they should buy."
Along with improved home sales, the county also experienced its best first quarter average home sales price at $115,529 since 2009, which had an average sales price of $125,432 during the same period.
Jason Williamson, broker associate with ERA King Real Estate in Anniston, said his company had also experienced noticeable improvement this year. Williamson said record low interest rates and increased consumer confidence have led to the improvement in sales. Interest rates are around 3.25 percent.
"We went through such a tough period for so long, people were scared ... but people are finally coming to grips," Williamson said. "It really makes no sense why someone isn't in the market for a house right now."
Keivan Deravi, economist at Auburn University Montgomery, said the county's improvement is in line with sales growth in housing markets across the country.
Housing markets everywhere are doing good," Deravi said. "All the elements are in place ... good interest rates and banks are more stable ... and people are starting to come out of their shells."
Still, Deravi warned that housing markets may again weaken in the coming months due to the recent shakiness in the stock market and slow job growth.
Butch Kreh, an appraiser with Area-wide Appraisal Service in Anniston, said his company has had increased business in areas across the county, but he is not taking the improvement for granted. Kreh said he has no plans to make any great expenditures in the near future, despite the jump in business.
"I'm a little bit conservative by nature and am still interested in small improvements in the business itself," Kreh said. "We're focusing on purchases of delayed materials and trying to build back up our reserves."
Williamson said he and other area real estate agents have learned since the last housing boom and are unlikely to engage in wanton spending despite the improving housing market.
"Like many good real estate agents that lived through the boom years, where it seemed money was limitless, the next go around, I'll not partake in as many of the fun, fun things and take them for granted," Williamson said.

As it turns out, Bob (not his real name) had simply outsourced his own job to a Chinese consulting firm. Bob spent less than one fifth of his six-figure salary for a Chinese firm to do his job for him. Authentication was no problem, he physically FedExed his RSA token to China so that the third-party contractor could log-in under his credentials during the workday. It would appear that he was working an average 9 to 5 work day. Investigators checked his web browsing history, and that told the whole story. A typical 'work day' for Bob looked like this: 9:00 a.m. – Arrive and surf Reddit for a couple of hours. Watch cat videos 11:30 a.m. – Take lunch 1:00 p.m. – Ebay time. 2:00 – ish p.m Facebook updates – LinkedIn 4:30 p.m. – End of day update e-mail to management. 5:00 p.m. – Go home
LOL @ the picture.
I can't believe he got away with it for any length of time. I admit I've jokingly thought of that prospect in the past; I can't imagine someone actually went through with it.
Kudos to 'Bob' :)
Provided the work gets done this kind of thing really shouldn't be an issue other than a potential security risk. Why should only big faceless corporations be allowed to outsource jobs?
Bob you da man! lol
lol this guy is a genius.
IT contracting companies do it all the time! They get more than double what the employee actually doing the work does!!
An IT contracting company will compete with other companies to place an employee. The company get's paid say $200,000/yr and they provide someone to fill a slot and pay that person $80,000/yr or less! While $80,000 is still pretty decent... it's no where near $200,000!

There was a FML (fmylife.com) a while back about a guy who applied for a IT job, when he went in for the interview they asked how much he expected his hourly wage to be, he asked for $12. The interviewer exclaimed,"That's a whole lot cheaper than the last guy! We were paying him $120 an hour!".
Which brings me to my short stint in the IT world. I find that when it comes to IT work, 90% of people end up in $12-$20 an hour jobs that they usually hate. No one really wants to play tech support, or help desk, but that's just where the majority of the jobs seem to be. However, most people don't understand the value of someone in IT, nor do they understand the weight of their college education. While the starting pay can be great for someone fresh out of college or high school, there often isn't many places within IT that you can move up into, unless you switch companies. This level of confusion allows employees in IT to basically do as they please, people never understand what is going on, you can bust your ass and not be working hard enough, or you could be outsourcing your job and be the best employee in the world...until you get caught.
Now saying that, my friends dad was the webmaster for match.com and brought in $135 an hour. A guy I play poker with is some sort of IT director/manager for AT&T and brings in over 100k a year. So i'm not saying it's not possible, i'm just saying that most people get their degree and settle into a field they have no passion for. Which of course seems to be the exact path this guy took.

I have a survey and all the needed results. I need to export the results to excel, though in the process of setting up the survey I changed or removed the Overview.aspx page/view. Now when I add a webpart like the overview.aspx, everything is the same except when I go to the Action button "Export to Excel" is not an option. How do I get that option back? If I can't get that option on a webpart back how can I get the results of the survey exported to excel?

I had a similar problem where the export option was not visible in the action menu. As workaround, I found that if I accessed the survey from Site Settings ==> View All Site Content ==> My Survey then the export button is available.

RFID Tags
RFID > RFID Tags
RFID labels contain a small microchip that is attached to an antenna. The microchip is capable of storing encoded information such as a unique ID number which can be retrieved when activated by a suitable RFID reader. The main advantage of RFID is that it does not require a line of sight unlike competing solutions such as barcodes. A number of frequency bands exist for RFID making RFID suitable for a wide range of applications. For more information on RFID or to discuss your specific RFID application in more detail, please contact us.

Heritage Academy Reviews
Heritage Academy is an absolutley amazing school. The teachers are amazing, knowledgeable, and the most caring I have ever seen. I would recommend this school for any type of student. They work very hard to give the best education possible. I couldn't imagine my son going to any other school!
You learn about adjectives in school. The adjectives I would use to describe Heritage Academy would be: caring, industrious, proactive, truthful, and godly. My five-year-old son is flourishing in the kindergarten program.

Have you got Orgullo, Pasion y Gloria by Metallica? Their latest DVD/CD? (I think)
Do the following:
Grab your electric guitar/bass of choice, tune to Eb, and put Creeping Death on your player.
Play the song along with the band.
You'll realize how much of a cluster**** Lars Ulrich is, nowadays.
He's drops out of time EVERYWHERE, all the time. You'll miss around 50% of all the accentuated bits on the rhythm.
He jumps in too early, always. And he's always speeding up!
In the second riff, you'll notice how Hetfield tries to slow him down.
And what does Lars do? Speed up. It's like a competition inside the house.
His feel for timing is simply non-existant.
Yeah, I don't think it's a bad feel.
I just think he doesn't care about it, so he doesn't even try. And you'll notice.
It's like a pandora's box to play with him, live on record. It's interesting and a really weird exercise.
Of course, playing Creeping Death along with the Ride the Lightning album is easy. I never fall out on that one. He keeps it slower and steady.
I honestly don't know how Hetfield, Hammett and Trujillo can be tight with Lars. And kudos to all four of them for doing it.
Lars just plays the way he wants to play.
Cool, weird and mystifying all at once. I admire that.
He's got nothing to prove. He's got it all done for himself.

Jul 28, 2009
Health care reform, an issue that has long simmered on the media back burner, finally exploded into the headlines last week, accounting for one-quarter of the overall coverage. Yet late in the week, the health care debate took a back seat to the arrest of a black professor that exposed the "third rail" of American society—race.
Together, the two stories accounted for nearly 40% of the coverage from July 20-26. And in both cases, Barack Obama played a key role.
The debate over health care legislation filled 25% of the newshole last week and was the top story in four of the five media sectors, according to the Pew Research Center's Project for Excellence in Journalism. That marked the most weekly attention to that subject since PEJ began the News Coverage Index in 2007, more than doubling the previous high water mark (11%), which occurred the week of July 13-19, 2009.
Indeed, coverage of the health care issue has traditionally ranged from sparse to non-existent. In 2007 and 2008, it accounted for less than 1% of the overall newshole. But the subject has generated more media scrutiny in recent weeks as it moved squarely into the political arena. Last week, as Obama convened a press conference and his timetable for legislation seemed to be slipping, coverage spiked dramatically—evidence of the media's proclivity to pay more attention when complex issues are framed by a heated Washington debate.

RICHMOND, Virginia (AP)— State figures show firearm-related homicides and injuries are declining in Virginia.
Figures from the state's Office of the Chief Medical Examiner show firearms-related homicides fell 32 percent, from 357 in 2005 to 242 in 2011.
Virginia Department of Health figures show firearm-related injuries requiring hospitalization declined 28 percent, from 392 to 283, during the same period.
The Richmond Times-Dispatch (http://bit.ly/W8DWm0 ) reports that the medical examiner's latest annual report on firearm-related homicides has a new category for assault rifles.
Previous reports listed assault rifles in the rifle category.
Forensic epidemiologist Dr. Anna Noller says one of the staff's pathologists thought assault rifles were different enough that they should be placed in a separate category.
The report lists one assault rifle homicide in 2011.

Stained Glass Cookies and Ornaments
These cookies look great hanging from a Christmas tree branch or against a window — especially a kitchen window. Their light-catching beauty isn't difficult to reproduce.
They are simply rolled cookies with the centers cut out and filled with colorful crushed hard candy. The candy melts as the cookies bake, turning into a thin sheet of transparent color that looks just liked stained glass.
The actual cookie dough that you use does not matter significantly; any favorite sugar cookie or gingerbread recipe will work well.
This recipe does not need to be chilled before being used and it does not get sticky, which makes it particularly kid friendly. (This is not to say that the dough can't be chilled — it can.)
It's a great recipe to have on hand should you decide to make stained glass cookies as last-minute holiday gifts or ornaments.

By Edward D. Murphy email@example.com
Staff Writer
Maine lobstermen had a terrific year in 2012, hauling a record 123 million pounds of the crustaceans from state waters, a whopping 18 percent increase from the year before.
Justin Sylvester packs lobsters at Ready Seafood in Portland Monday, September 10, 2012. More than 123 million pounds of lobsters were caught in 2012, but the value decreased amid a glut of soft-shelled lobster.
Shawn Patrick Ouellette / Staff Photographer
But Maine lobstermen also had a terrible year in 2012, netting just $331 million for that catch, a decrease of $3.7 million from 2011.
"It's unbelievable," said David Cousens, a member of the Maine Lobstermen's Association. "The resource is in great shape, but the economics of the industry are in horrible shape."
The preliminary report on the 2012 season from the Maine Department of Marine Resources comes as state officials are holding meetings with lobstermen this month to discuss what to do about the sharp increase in supply -- the catch is up nearly 30 percent since 2010 and 75 percent since 2005 -- and falling prices.
For the 70 million pounds of lobster caught in 2005, Maine lobstermen made $320 million, almost as much as they did last year with a dramatically larger catch.
The market went out of balance sharply this year, with an unprecedented glut of soft-shell lobsters that started showing up in traps in May, a good two months ahead of schedule. And then they just kept coming all through the summer, driving down the price paid to lobstermen to as low as $2 a pound.
The problem with soft-shell lobsters is that they are the bottom of the barrel as far as quality and price. They can't survive shipping, even to markets as close as New York, so they either need to be sold locally or sent to Canada, where processors pay low prices, as a market of last resort.
At one point this summer, Canadian lobstermen shut down several processing plants with protests, complaining that the American lobsters were flooding their market and driving prices down just as they were about to head back out on the water during their government-regulated fishing seasons.
Cousens said Maine lobstermen may need to start following the lead of their northern colleagues and limit fishing during July and August, the prime months for soft-shells.
"We need to stop catching the lobsters when they're not worth anything and you can't do anything with them," he said. "It needs to happen and it needs to happen soon."
Cousens said Maine lobstermen would be better off harvesting more in the spring and fall, when the shells are hard, the lobsters can be shipped farther to domestic and overseas markets and prices would be higher. He said voluntary steps aren't likely to work, so the state may need to step in to establish fishing seasons, something that has long been resisted by most of the state's 4,345 active lobster fishermen.
But Cousens said there are inequities within the lobstering industry that will make finding a solution difficult.
He said lobstermen Down East are catching 70 percent of the lobster hauled in the state and are making up for low prices with high volume.
Meanwhile, for lobstermen in midcoast and southern Maine, "it's another world," he said, with the catch failing to make up for the low prices. "Those people are struggling."
Any attempt to find a solution will also be complicated by an industry that is resistant to change, said Bob Baines, a member of the Lobster Advisory Council.
"Our industry is changing and the people involved in it need to pay attention and we need to change with the times," Baines said. "We have a robust fishery and our margin of profitability has gotten less and less, so something's wrong."

Weighty Matters InfoWeighty Matters used to be just a chronicle of my weight loss efforts, which was extremely frustrating because I couldn't maintain it--both the blog and the weight loss thing. So instead, I have transformed my thinking (and this blog) so that it will not only deal with weight loss but also with all important health issues that we face. This is now my journal not just to lose weight but to keep it and to maintain good health. Hence, the name of this blog still applies. After all, all health issues are weighty matters.

Hi -
Noob here. I am looking to upgrade my unlocked/jailbroken iPhone 3GS (running 3.1.2 and 5.11.07), currently jailbroken using Blackra1n, to version 4.1 and then jailbreak/unlock it.
I've gone through the forums and done my searches, and as far as I can tell, I should:
- download Pwnage Tool 4.1.2 -- done
- download iPhone3,1_4.1_8B117_Restore.ipsw -- done
- run the Pwnage tool and follow the instructions to jailbreak the phone, and then install ultrasn0w via Cydia to unlock.
Is that all?
I have a few questions:
1/ Do I need to do anything with Tinyumbrella in order to prevent my baseband from being upgraded, or does the Pwnage tool 4.1.2 upgrade the firmware without touching the BB? I believe this to be the case, but just wanted to doublecheck.
2/ I dont have a SHSH certificate for 3.1.2 stored on my computer. Does that mean I am screwed in case I mess things up? Anything else I can do in order to back my iPhone up and try to restore to that state, or do I risk turning it into a brick if I screw up?
3/ I've read that Pwnage only works with old bootrom. I dont know if I have the older or newer one. I tried going into DFU mode but am unable to do so - every time I try to power on or connect the iPhone to my Mac, I get the "Connect to iTunes in order to verify the phone" screen and have to run Blackra1n. I tried using f0recast, and for the Untethered field, it says "Depends if it is refurbished". The phone was a present from a friend who bought it at a mall in Singapore, and I dont think even she knows if it is refurbished or not. So - any ideas? Olethros's post indicates that Pwnage will work with both old and new bootrooms.
4/ I dont have the original SIM that the phone came with. Is that needed? As far as I can tell, no, but want to confirm this nonetheless.
5/ Is 4.1 the best option or should I consider going with 4.2 or even 4.3? I'd like to avoid the battery-drain option, if possible.
6/ Anything else I am missing? Is this the best way for me to proceed or is there another, better/less-prone-to-mistakes/easier-to-reverse option out there?
Thanks for your help and I apologize for the noobiness of the questions.
